Control panel
1 ON/OFF button 4 Temperature selector
2 Mode selection button 5 External thermometer
3 Sound alarm button, red light
ON/OFF Switch (1)

on.
The appliance is switched off - the green light is
off.
Operation Mode Selection
Switch (2)
This switch is used to select one of the two
operation modes: continuous and automatic.
Continuous operation - the yellow
light is on.
The cooling system operates continuously. This
mode is selected when you want to freeze large
amounts of fresh foods and in case you want to
deep freeze already frozen foods.
Automatic operation - the yellow
light is off.
The interior temperature is controlled by the
thermostat which turns the cooling system on and
off.
The frequency of switching the cooling system on
and off depends on:
the thermostat knob position (thermostat
setting),
how often you open the door; and
ambient temperature.
Sound alarm button, red light (3)
Sound alarm is triggered and red light is on if the
freezer compartment is not under correct
temperature (see section Troubleshooting guide).
Alarm is triggered also when the door remains
open for some time. It may be stopped by closing
the door.
Temperature Selection (4)
When the freezer operates automatically, the
interior temperature is controlled by the
thermostat.
The most suitable thermostat position is in the
middle between max (7) and min (1).
We recommend setting the thermostat on
positions towards max (7) only in case you want
to accelerate cooling, as for example before
loading smaller amounts of fresh foods or when
the operation mode shall correspond to the
ambient temperature.
Thermostat settings towards min (1) help you
save energy provided that the freezer is loaded
with smaller amount of frozen foods.
Changes of the ambient temperature affects
temperature in the interior of the appliance.
Choose correct setting of the thermostat knob.
